bOb NUttING Chairman of the Board Robert (Bob) Nutting serves as Chairman of the Board of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Bob assumed control of the club in January of 2007, thus becoming the sixth principal owner in the history of the Pittsburgh Pirates. He has served as Chairman of the Board and represented his family’s interest in the club since 2003. Upon assuming control of the organization, Nutting put a plan in place to overhaul the entire operation. In September of 2007, he appointed Frank Coonelly as the team’s new president and, in-turn, Neal Huntington as the team’s new general manager. Since that time the effort has been to build a strong foundation by investing in the core operations, while aggressively acquiring and developing talent. Nutting further demonstrated his long-term commitment to the club by constructing the Pirates new training academy in the Dominican Republic. The new campus style training complex, which opened in April 2009 as one of the very best in Major League Baseball, will help the Pirates attract, retain and teach the best players, coaches and scouts in the Latin America region. Nutting’s family roots in the greater Pittsburgh region date back as long as the Pirates 123-year history. Under his leadership, the Pirates have made a commitment to making an even deeper positive impact in the community. In 2009, the Pirates and its newly formed philanthropic arm, Pirates Charities, assisted more than 2,000 community organizations. Also in 2009, Pirates Charities officially opened the new Pirates Charities Miracle League Field. The field, which is the first of its kind in the Pittsburgh-region, is designed and dedicated to allow children with special needs to enjoy the game of baseball. Nutting brings a long history of building successful organizations and a multi-generational commitment to the economic growth of the Pittsburgh region. He also serves as President and CEO of Ogden Newspapers, Inc., and Chairman of Seven Springs Mountain Resort; a four-season resort located 60 miles East of Pittsburgh. PERSONAL: Robert M.

Clemente Day
On September 8, 2010 the Pittsburgh Pirates visited and hand-delivered a variety of goods to the children of Pittsburgh King Pre K-8 school on the North Side. This initiative was part of the Clemente Day events, which celebrate the life and community service legacy of Pirates Hall-of-Famer Roberto Clemente. During the Pirates visit to Pittsburgh King Pre K-8 school, the children had the opportunity to hear Vera Clemente, Goodwill Ambassador for Major League Baseball and widow of the late Roberto Clemente, along with her sons Roberto, Jr. and Luis, speak on the importance of having pride in yourself and your community, as well as giving back to the community. Following the assembly, the entire Pirates roster of players unloaded a truck full of items for the children, including t-shirts made specifically for the students, copies of the book “Roberto Clemente: The Pride of the Pittsburgh Pirates” for each child, physical education equipment and baseball and softball equipment. Two new baseball/softball teams were formed by the school as a result of the donated equipment; something that would not have been possible without it.
Holiday Charitable Efforts Urban League holiday Party Pirates players Neil Walker and Garrett Jones, the Pirate Parrot and members of the Pirates front office partnered with Allegheny County’s Department of Human Services to host children from the Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh Charter School at PNC Park on Saturday, December 4, 2010 for a party to help celebrate the holiday season. Each child had their own personal locker set up in the Pirates clubhouse complete with their very own replica jersey and Pirates customized stocking filled with goodies. The children and their guests were treated to lunch in the home clubhouse and had an opportunity to take a few swings in the indoor batting cages, as well as a chance to take part in a number of other fun activities including face painting, cookie decorating, and holiday crafts.

Manager
AGE: 53 (turns 54 on July 30) BORN: 7/30/57 in Big Rapids, MI RESIDES: Pittsburgh, PA APPOINTED: 11/15/10
POSITION PLAYED: OF CONTRACT: Signed thru 2013 (club option for 2014)
Clint Hurdle was named manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates on November 15, 2010, becoming the 39th manager in the organization’s 124-year history. The 2011 season marks his 37th in professional baseball. Hurdle spent the 2010 season as the Hitting Coach of the American League champion Texas Rangers, a club that led the Major Leagues with a .276 batting average during the regular season - paced by A.L. MVP Josh Hamilton (.359 average, 32 home runs and 100 RBI) and Vladimir Guerrero (.300 average, 29 home runs and 115 RBI). Prior to joining the Texas coaching staff on November 5, 2009, Hurdle spent over 15 years in the Colorado organization, serving as a minor league hitting coordinator, Major League hitting coach and manager at the big league level. He compiled a 543-625 record while serving the Rockies as manager from April 26, 2002, until he was relieved of his duties on May 29, 2009. Clint has the most wins of any manager in Colorado team history, winning his 500th Clint serving at Light of Life a week after being named Manager of the Pirates in December career game on August 29, 2008 at Los Angeles. In 2007, Hurdle led the Rockies to the World Series as the club captured its first National League pennant in franchise history. The 2007 club, which won 11 straight games in September, won 21 of its 22 games leading up to the World Series, where Boston pulled off a four-game sweep. During the 2007 post season, the Rockies swept the Phillies in the Division Series and Arizona in the Championship Series before falling to the Red Sox in the Fall Classic. For his efforts in 2007, Hurdle received four first-place votes and finished in third place in the voting for N.L. Managerof-the-Year. His ‘07 squad also compiled the highest single-season fielding pct. in Major League history (.989), a mark that still stands. Clint also served as manager of the National League in the 2008 All-Star Game at Yankee Stadium, the longest game (time, innings) in All-Star history (the N.L. lost 4-3 in 15 innings in a game that lasted 4:50). Hurdle was also a coach for the N.L. staff during the 2004 All-Star Game in Houston. Hurdle’s managerial career at the Major League level began with a 4-1 victory over the Phillies at Coors Field on April 26, 2002. He replaced Buddy Bell as Colorado’s skipper that day and went 6-0 in his first six games - tied for the sixthbest winning streak by a manager following a mid-season managerial change in Major League history (Joe Morgan holds the record as his Red Sox won their first 12 games in 1988). In his five-plus years tutoring Colorado’s hitters, the club compiled the N.L.’s top two averages in 70 years (.294 in 2000 and .292 in 2001) and the league’s most base hits since 1930 (1,664 in 2000). In 2001 alone, the Rockies established a Major League record for total bases (2,748) and the N.L. mark for extra-base hits (598). Hurdle, who doubled as the club’s First Base Coach from 1997-98, remained on the coaching staff under three different Colorado managers; Don Baylor, Jim Leyland and Buddy Bell. Prior to becoming Hitting Coach in 1997, Clint served the Rockies as their minor league hitting instructor from 1994-96. Before he joined the Colorado organization, Hurdle managed in the New York Mets system for six seasons (1988-1993) and compiled a 412-418 record. In his first season as a manager, and in St. Lucie’s first year of existence, he led the club to a second-half division title and the Florida State League championship. Hurdle also took his 1989 St. Lucie club and the 1990 Jackson team to the post season, losing in the first round of the playoffs each year. After managing Williamsport in the Eastern League in 1991, Clint wrapped up his minor league managerial career with two seasons at the Triple-A level with Tidewater in 1992 and Norfolk in 1993. Primarily an outfielder during his playing days, Hurdle was selected by Kansas City in the first round (9th player overall) of the 1975 June draft. After three full seasons in the minor leagues, which included American Association Rookie-ofthe-Year and All-Star Game MVP honors while playing with Omaha in 1977, Clint made his Major League debut at the age of 20 with the Royals on September 18, Hurdle played parts of 10 seasons in the Major 1977, and hit a two-run homer off Seattle’s Glenn Abbott in his second at bat.

AGE: 57 (turns 58 on August 16) BORN: 8/16/53 in Ontario, CA RESIDES: Wayne, PA
Nick Leyva joined Manager Clint Hurdle’s staff as the Third Base Coach on November 24, 2010. In addition to his role as the Third Base Coach, he will serve as the Club’s Infield Coach. The 2011 season marks Leyva’s 35th in professional baseball and his 17th at the Major League level. He spent the 2010 season as the Bench Coach for the Toronto Blue Jays - under Manager Cito Gaston - after working the previous two seasons as Toronto’s Third Base Coach. An infielder during his playing days, Leyva was selected by St. Louis in the 24th round of the 1975 First-Year Player Draft and began his professional career with Class-A Sarasota that summer. After a three-year playing career, which concluded with a stint at Double-A Arkansas in 1977, Leyva began his managerial/coaching career as a manager in the St. Louis farm system with Johnson City in 1977. In his first six seasons managing in the minor leagues (1978-1983), Leyva posted 350-340 (.507) record and was named the Texas League Manager-of-the-Year in 1983 after guiding Arkansas to a 69-67 record and second-half division title. Nick served the Cardinals as their First Base Coach at the big league level for two years (1984-85) before moving across the diamond to the third base coaching box for three years. In addition, he managed in the Puerto Rican Winter League for three years, winning the Championship and being named Manager-of-the-Year with Mayaguez in 1986. After his five seasons as a coach with the Cardinals, the Philadelphia Phillies named Leyva their Manager on October 3, 1988. At 37 years of age at the time, he was the youngest skipper of the Phillies since 1960 (Gene Mauch - 34). Leyva guided the Phillies to a 77-85 record in his second year at the helm, showing a 10-game improvement from his rookie campaign. Philadelphia, however, let Leyva go on April 24, 1991, after he got off to a 4-9 start that season. Leyva joined the Toronto organization for the first time in 1992 when he was hired to manage Triple-A Syracuse, a position he held for two seasons before serving the Blue Jays as their Third Base Coach from 1994-97. In that time, he also managed Lara in the Venezuelan Winter League in 1995 and 1996. After working two years in private business, Nick spent seven seasons in the Chicago White Sox organization. He was a manager at the Triple-A level with Charlotte for two seasons prior to being named the Appalachian League Manager-of-theYear in 2002 after guiding his Bristol club to a 43-25 record and a league title. He also won a Puerto Rican League championship with Mayaguez in 2002, one year after leading Lara to the Venezuelan Winter League championship. For two years (2003-04), Leyva served the White Sox as their Minor League Infield Instructor before returning to the managerial post with Charlotte in 2005 and Bristol in 2006. Leyva spent the 2007 season as the Third Base Coach with the Milwaukee Brewers. His last stint as a manager came in 2008 when he spent the first three months in the Mets farm system with Kingsport in the Appalachian League. He guided the K-Mets to a 1-2 record before being named Toronto’s Third Base Coach on June 20 that season. In his 14 seasons as a minor league manager, Leyva has posted a 714-777 (.479) record. He also captured three Winter League Championships while managing in Puerto Rico and Venezuela for seven seasons.

APPOINTED: 11/24/10 POSITION PLAYED: Outfield
AGE: 47 BORN: 1/25/64 in Washington, D.C. RESIDES: Stafford, VA
Gregg Ritchie was named Pittsburgh’s Hitting Coach on November 24, 2010. The 2011 season marks Ritchie’s sixth with the Pirates organization, having served as the minor league hitting coordinator for the last five years (2006-2010). During that time, Gregg was instrumental in the development of some of Pittsburgh’s young stars, including Andrew McCutchen, Jose Tabata, Neil Walker and Pedro Alvarez. Prior to joining the Pirates, Gregg spent 10 years as a hitting coach in the Chicago White Sox minor league system. While part of their development staff, Chicago’s minor league teams advanced to the playoffs numerous times and captured a Double-A Championship with Birmingham. The White Sox also won the 2005 World Series, sweeping the Houston Astros in four games. He began his coaching career with Bristol in the Appalachian League in 1996. After two seasons with Bristol, Ritchie moved on to Class-A Hickory (1998) and Class-A Winston-Salem (1999). Gregg spent a majority of his tenure with the White Sox coaching the Double-A Birmingham club, where he spent four seasons (2000-2002, 2005). He represented the White Sox at the Southern League All-Star Game in 2002 as his Barons went on to lead the circuit with a .269 batting average and 220 stolen bases. Gregg began the 2003 campaign at Birmingham before moving up to the Triple-A Charlotte club when Hitting Coach Greg Walker was promoted to the Major League team on May 19. That year, Charlotte led the International League in home runs (139) and slugging percentage (.432), while ranking second in batting (.281). During his tenure with Birmingham, Ritchie helped propel the team to a franchise and Southern League record of six consecutive playoff berths. Originally selected by San Francisco in the eighth round of the 1986 June Draft, Ritchie spent seven seasons as an outfielder in the Giants farm system (1986-1992). He led the California League with 118 runs scored while playing with San Jose in 1988 and was named to the Midwest League All-Star team in 1987 after posting a career-high .337 average and 41 stolen bases at Class-A Clinton. Ritchie also played two seasons (1993-1994) with the Monterrey Industrials of the Mexican League and wrapped up his 10-year playing career in 1995 when he spent time with Triple-A Oklahoma City in the Texas organization, Tabasco of the Mexican League and with the Brother Elephants in Taiwan.

That Dick Stuart led the 1960 Pirates with 23 home runs hit during the regular season. He also hit a team-high 35 homers a year later while also leading the Bucs with 117 RBI during his All-Star campaign. Stuart’s 34 home runs as a first baseman in 1961 remain a club record for the most home runs hit at that position in one season and his 111 career homers as a first baseman rank third in club history behind Willie Stargell (184) and Kevin Young (128).

DID YOU KNOW... That Dick Groat was named the National League MVP in 1960 after leading the league in batting (.325) and knocking in 50 runs in 138 games for the World Champs. He also became the first right-handed Pirates hitter to win the batting title since Honus Wagner in 1911. From 1956 to 1962, Groat teamed with second baseman Bill Mazeroski to give Pittsburgh one of the game's strongest middle infields; he led the N.L. in double plays a record five times, in putouts four times and in assists twice. 2011 PITTSBURGH PIRATES MEdIA GUIdE

GENERAL
That a Bucco player has hit for the cycle in the city of Pittsburgh just once in the last 61 years. Jason Kendall was the last one to do it in Pittsburgh, when he accomplished the feat at Three Rivers Stadium on May 19, 2000. Prior to that, Wally Westlake was the last member of the Pirates to hit for the cycle at home when he did so on June 14, 1949, against the Boston Braves at Forbes Field.

Pittsburgh Pirates Team History Now in their 125th National League season, the Pittsburgh Pirates own a history filled with World Championships, legendary players and some of baseball’s most dramatic games and moments. The Pirates’ roots in Pittsburgh actually date back to April 15, 1876, when the Pittsburgh Alleghenys brought professional baseball to the city by playing their first game at Union Park. In 1877, the Alleghenys were accepted into the minor-league International Association, but disbanded the following year. Baseball returned to Pittsburgh for good in 1882 when the Alleghenys reformed and joined the American Association, a rival of the National League. After the 1886 season, the Kansas City franchise was expelled from the N.L. and Pittsburgh President William A. Nimmick’s application for membership was accepted. On April 30, 1887, the Alleghenys defeated the defending league-champion Chicago White Stockings, 6-2, before a crowd of nearly 10,000 at Recreation Park. The victorious beginning was not an indication of things to come, however, as the team managed to finish higher than 1885 Alleghenys fifth only once in the 13 remaining seasons of the century. In 1890, the Alleghenys’ roster was demolished when key players jumped to a new rival to the National League — the Players League. They staggered to a club-record 113 losses as the two leagues engaged in a bitter battle over talent. When the Players League folded after only one season, all players were expected to return to the clubs they played for in 1889. But in 1891 Pittsburgh signed Louis Bierbauer, a second baseman with Brooklyn of the Players League who had spent the previous four seasons with the Philadelphia Athletics. The A’s and their American Association brethren immediately accused Pittsburgh of ‘’pirating’’ Bierbauer away from them. Pittsburgh kept the player and the nickname and became known as the Pirates thereafter. The fortunes of the Pirates turned in 1900 when the National League reduced its membership from 12 to eight teams. As part of the move, Barney Dreyfuss, owner of the defunct Louisville club, acquired controlling interest of the Pirates. In the largest player transaction in Pirate history, the Hall-of-Fame owner brought 14 players with him from the Louisville roster, including Hall of Famers Honus Wagner, Fred Clarke and Rube Waddell — plus standouts Deacon Phillippe, Chief Zimmer, Claude Ritchey and Tommy Leach. All would play significant roles as the Pirates became the league’s dominant franchise, winning pennants in 1901, 1902 and 1903 and a World championship in 1909. Wagner, dubbed ‘’The Flying Dutchman,’’ was the game’s premier player during the decade, winning seven batting titles and leading the majors in hits (1,850) and RBI (956) from 1900-1909. One of the pioneers of the game, Dreyfuss is sometimes called ‘’The Father of the World Series’’ because he challenged Henry Killilea, the owner of the American League champion Boston Pilgrims, to a post-season playoff in 1903 to determine who was baseball’s best team. On October 1, 1903, Phillippe defeated the legendary Cy Young, 7-3, in the first World Series game ever played. Boston, however, later emerged as the Series winner, overcoming a threegames-to-one deficit to win the best-of-nine competition, five games to three.

The Pirates finished as runner-up three times in the next five years before getting another shot at a World Series title in 1909. The Bucs won a club-record 110 games that year with three pitchers — Howie Camnitz (25), Vic Willis (22) and Lefty Leifield (19) combining for 66 victories. The Series pitted the league’s batting champions — Wagner and Detroit’s Ty Cobb against each other, but rookie pitcher Babe Adams, who was 12-3 during the regular season, emerged as the Series hero for the Pirates. While Camnitz, Willis and Leifield failed to win a game, Adams won three, including a six-hit shutout in the seventh and deciding game. It was the last of four titles the Pirates would win under Clarke, who managed the club until 1915. The 1909 season also marked the beginning of a new era in ballparks as the Pirates christened Forbes Field on June 30 that year. Since 1891, the Pirates had called Exposition Park — which was located on virtually the same site as Three Rivers Stadium — their home. Described as the “Hialeah of Ballparks” when it opened, Forbes Field would remain the home of the Pirates for six decades and would host many great moments. Pittsburgh sank to the league’s second division for most of the next decade, but by the early 1920’s — with an influx of outstanding talent which included future Hall of Famers Pie Traynor, Kiki Cuyler, Rabbit Maranville and Max Carey — Pittsburgh was again a contender. After three straight third-place finishes from 1922 to 1924, the Pirates won the N.L. title by eight and a half games over the second-place New York Giants in 1925.
Honus Wagner
The Series matched Pittsburgh against the Washington Senators, who jumped out to a three-games-to-one lead. The Pirates, however, bounced back to win the final three games and the Series. Their miraculous comeback included a 15-hit pounding of Hall of Famer Walter ‘’Big Train’’ Johnson in Game Seven. In 1926, a rookie named Paul Waner joined the Bucs and batted .336. A year later, his brother Lloyd joined him and belted out 223 hits for a club rookie record .355 2011 PITTSBURGH PIRATES MEDIA GUIDE

average and the Pirates were again National League champions. Paul, who was nicknamed ‘’Big Poison’’ — batted .300 or better 14 times, captured three batting titles and collected 200 or more hits in eight different seasons. He was named the league’s Most Valuable Player in 1927 and went on to compile 3,152 hits and a .333 career batting average. Lloyd — who was tagged ‘’Little Poison’’ — hit .300 or better in 10 of his first 12 seasons, compiled a career mark of .316 and accumulated 2,450 hits. Both were elected to the Hall of Fame.
The Waners were consistently among baseball’s premier hitters during the 1930’s with Paul amassing more hits (1,959) during the decade than any player in baseball. Traynor was one of the era’s best all-around players and is generally regarded as one of the finest third basemen ever to play the game. Shortstop Arky Vaughan topped the .300-mark in each of his 10 seasons with the Pirates (1932-1941) and his .385 average in 1935 has gone unequalled by any National League performer. He, too, is enshrined at Cooperstown.
Ralph Kiner
The 1960 World Series remains one of the most incredible post-season encounters ever on record. The Yankees won Game Two, Game Three and Game Six by a combined score of 38-3, but the Pirates used great pitching, defense and timely hitting to stretch the Series to a seventh game at Forbes Field. Pittsburgh took a 9-7 lead into the ninth — thanks to Hal Smith’s three-run homer in the eighth — but the Yankees came up with two runs in the top of the ninth to tie the score. The game and the Series ended, however, in the bottom of the ninth as Mazeroski belted what is perhaps the most dramatic home run in baseball history off Ralph Terry. Mazeroski was the only player in baseball history ever to end a World Series with a home run until Joe Carter of Toronto accomplished the feat in Game Six of the 1993 fall classic.
During the 1970’s, the Pirates were again among baseball’s premier teams. In that 10-year span, they won six division titles and finished as low as third only once. In the first 25 years of divisional play, the Bucs won more games (2,100) and finished first more often (nine times) than any other N.L. East club. The Pirates put together a 2,100-1,878 record during that period (.528 winning %).
Roberto Clemente
GENERAL
On October 2, 1985, the Galbreath family and Warner Communications sold the club to Pittsburgh Associates; a group of private investors who were committed to keeping the team in Pittsburgh.
AFFILIATES
The Pirates captured two more World Championships during the 1970’s. Their 1971 victory over Baltimore was a showcase for Clemente, who batted .414 and received the Series MVP award. In 1979, the Pirates became only the fourth team in history to erase a three-games-to-one deficit when they again bested the Orioles in seven games. Hall of Famer Willie Stargell took home MVP honors — as he did during the regular season — with a .400 batting average, three home runs (including the Series’ deciding blow in Game Seven) and seven RBI. It was a fitting conclusion to the decade for Stargell, who was the leading homerun hitter of the 1970’s (296). While the Pirates brought two world championships back to Pittsburgh during the 1970s, the Pittsburgh Steelers also came to prominence. The Steelers won four Super Bowls during the 70s, which, coupled with the Pirates success, helped garner Pittsburgh the “City of Champions” label.
DEVELOPMENT
During the 1960’s, Clemente established himself among the game’s elite players. He collected more hits (1,877) than anyone during the decade and would go on to reach the 3,000-hit plateau in 1972. During his marvelous career, he topped the .300 mark 13 times, won four batting titles and was named the National League’s Most Valuable Player in 1966.
POST-SEASON
Danny Murtaugh
In 1956, Pirate owner John Galbreath hired Joe L. Brown as general manager. With the club languishing in last place at 36-67 midway through the 1957 campaign, Brown promoted coach Danny Murtaugh to field manager. Within three seasons, the Bucs were again champions of the National League and again matched against the powerful New York Yankees in the World Series. This time the Bronx Bombers featured Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris.
HISTORY
Though the Pirates failed to finish higher than seventh from 1950 through 1957, the foundation for another championship was being put into place. Standout players were added throughout the decade, including 2001 Hall-of-Fame inductee Bill Mazeroski, Dick Groat, Vernon Law, Bob Friend, Bill Virdon, Face and Hall-of-Fame right fielder Roberto Clemente.
2010 REVIEW
Hall of Famer Ralph Kiner won or shared the N.L. home run title in each of the seven seasons that he wore a Pirates uniform (1946-52) — which is a streak that has never been matched in either league. In 1956, Pirate first baseman Dale Long hit home runs in a record eight straight games between May 19th and May 28th (that mark was matched by Don Mattingly in 1987 and Ken Griffey Jr. in 1993). Three years later, Harvey Haddix hurled what many consider the greatest game ever pitched when he retired 36 straight Milwaukee Braves hitters over 12 innings on May 26, 1959. The same year, ElRoy Face won 17 straight games in relief.
2011 PIRATES
The 1927 World Series featured the Pirates against New York’s famed ‘’Murderer’s Row’’ with Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig who swept Pittsburgh in four straight games. The next 33 years, Pirate fans went without a pennant winner, although they were not denied their share of great players and great moments.

After several lean years in the mid-eighties, the Pirates returned to contention in 1988 when they finished in second place and broke the club’s 28-year-old attendance mark. With players like Barry Bonds, Doug Drabek, Bobby Bonilla and Andy Van Slyke, Pittsburgh started the decade of the 1990’s in fine fashion, winning the N.L. East title three straight years. The Bucs became the first team to win three straight division titles since the Philadelphia Phillies accomplished the feat between 1976 and 1978. Bonds captured MVP honors in 1990 and 1992, while Drabek won the Cy Young award in ‘90. Manager Jim Leyland took home N.L. Manager-of-the-Year honors in both 1990 and 1992. In his 11 seasons at the helm, Leyland won 849 games, placing him third on the club’s All-Time Managerial win list. Pittsburgh was on the brink of a World Series berth in both the 1991 and 1992 season, but the Pirates lost the seventh and deciding game each year to the Atlanta Braves. In 1992, Pittsburgh came within three outs of the Fall Classic. But in the bottom of the ninth inning at Atlanta’s Fulton County Stadium, the Braves triumphed with three runs and won the game 3-2 and the series, four-games-to-three.

The people of Pittsburgh and the surrounding Tri-State area responded well to the club’s success in the nineties as the Pirates drew in excess of two million fans in both 1990 and 1991. A crowd of 59,568, the largest ever to watch a professional baseball game in Pittsburgh, witnessed the 65th Major League Baseball All-Star Game, played at Three Rivers Stadium on July 12, 1994. In one of the most thrilling All-Star Games ever to be played, the National League prevailed over the American League in extra frames. Fred McGriff helped send the game into extra innings when he delivered a two-run, pinch-hit home run off Lee Smith in the bottom of the ninth inning that tied the score. After the American League failed to score in the top of the 10th inning, the National League broke it’s six-game losing streak when Tony Gwynn scored on a double by Moises Alou. A new chapter of Pirate history began on February 14, 1996, when Kevin McClatchy and his group of investors purchased the storied franchise from Pittsburgh Ricardo Rincon and Francisco Cordova Associates.
Picked by many publications to finish last in 1997, the Pirates remained in the division race until the final weekend of the season and the club was named USA Today’s “Organization of the Year” at the conclusion of the season. Major League Baseball also underwent a change in 1997 with the birth of Interleague play. That season, the Pirates welcomed the Kansas City Royals to Three Rivers Stadium on June 13 for the club’s first interleague matchup, which Pittsburgh won by a score of 4-1. While the Barry Bonds Bucs contended for the division during the entire season, one of the most memorable moments of the season came on July 12, 1997. That night, pitchers Francisco Cordova and Ricardo Rincon thrilled Pirates fans with the only combined, extra-inning no-hitter in major league history. The game ended in the bottom of the 10th inning when Mark Smith delivered a three-run home run for the 3-0 win. The 2000 season brought an end to a full century of great moments, a 100-year period which began with three straight National League pennants and ended with an aura of hope and dreams of more championships to come. With a new home on the horizon, the Bucs said goodbye to Three Rivers Stadium with their final game ever played there on October 1, 2000. Three no-hitters, Clemente’s 3000th hit, two All-Star Games, countless playoff games, two World Championships and endless summer evenings can be associated with no other place in the history of Pittsburgh than Three Rivers Stadium.
In the early morning of February 11, 2001, Pittsburgh bid farewell to Three Rivers when the home of the Pirates and Steelers was imploded. PNC Park officially opened its gates on April 9, 2001. Regarded by many as the best ballpark ever 2011 PITTSBURGH PIRATES MEDIA GUIDE

The Pirates closed out their 30-year tenure at Three Rivers Stadium with a 10-9 loss to the Chicago Cubs in the final game of what was the club’s home since 1970. Pittsburgh native John Wehner smacked the final home run in the history of the ballpark off Chicago’s Jon Lieber. Ironically, Wehner also grounded out to third base for the final out ever at Three Rivers. With the loss, Pittsburgh closed out Three Rivers Stadium with a record of 1,324 wins and 1,082 losses.

Pittsburgh pirates | Team History
The anticipation and joy of a new ballpark turned to sorrow, when on the morning of the first regular season game at PNC Park, a beloved member of the Pirates family was lost when Willie Stargell passed away on April 9, 2001.
On June 25, 2002, the Pirates registered the 9,000th win in the history of the franchise with a 4-1 victory over the Montreal Expos, thus becoming just the fourth club to produce 9,000 wins.
2011 PIRATES
Despite suffering 100 losses for just the seventh time in club history in 2001, fans came out in record numbers as the Bucs played in front of 19 sellouts and a total of 2,436,139 customers during the inaugural season at PNC Park.
ORGANIZATION
built, PNC Park is an intimate two-level structure which offers all fans dramatic views of the downtown skyline as well as the natural grass playing surface. After touring all 30 major league ballparks during the summer of 2003, ESPN.com ranked PNC Park as the best in baseball.
The Pirates have had a long list of sluggers in their history and Brian Giles added his name to that list during his five seasons in a Bucco uniform. He hit 30 or more home runs in each of his first four seasons with the club, just one of three Pirates to hit 30 or more long balls in four consecutive years (also Hall-ofFamers Ralph Kiner and Willie Stargell). His 165 home runs with Pittsburgh rank sixth in club history.
Jason Kendall
Also in 2006, Freddy Sanchez added his name to the club’s record list of 25 batting champions as his .344 average led the National League. Sanchez banged out 200 hits in 2006 and led the N.L. with 53 doubles while being named to his first of two All-Star teams.
DEVELOPMENT AFFILIATES
On January 18, 2007, Bob Nutting officially assumed control of the ballclub, thus becoming only the sixth principal owner in the Pirates storied history. Following a deep look into the team’s operations, Nutting has built a fundamentally different organization by introducing Frank Coonelly as the team’s new president on September 13, 2007 and, in-turn, Neal Huntington as the team’s new general manager on September 25, 2007. From there the new leadership team has made significant changes to each of the three major areas – Major League manager/coaching staff, Scouting Director and Farm Director, with the goal of building an organization that can consistently compete. Andrew McCutchen In the last two years, fans witnessed the debut of 2005 first-round draft pick Andrew McCutchen and the emergence of many other young players, including Pedro Alvarez, Neil Frank Coonelly with Bob Nutting and Walker and Jose Tabata. As the organization enters the second decade of the millennium, the future once again looks bright for the Pirates and their fans. Chuck Tanner on Opening Day 2008
POST-SEASON
The national spotlight shined once again on the city of Pittsburgh during the 2006 season as the Major League Baseball All-Star Game was played at PNC Park, marking the fifth time the event has been held in the Steel City. The American League won a dramatic 3-2 decision in the Midsummer Classic as the Pirates became the first team in baseball history to host the All-Star Game in three different venues.
HISTORY
For the first time in team history a Pittsburgh player captured Rookie-ofthe-Year honors as outfielder Jason Bay took home the honors in 2004. A two-time National League All-Star, Bay was a fan favorite at the 2006 AllStar Game in Pittsburgh.
2010 REVIEW
Catcher Jason Kendall spent each of his first nine big league seasons in a Pittsburgh uniform after being selected in the first round of the 1992 June draft. In that time, he made 1,205 appearances behind the plate. That figure ranks first all-time in the annals of the club, 50 games ahead of George Gibson, who caught for the Bucs from 1906 thru 1915. Kendall surpassed Gibson’s 90-year-old record in Los Angeles on August 3, 2004.

Pittsburgh Pirates Uniform History 1900-1910: The jersey of this period was short-sleeved with no trim except for
a dark blue collar. Stockings were dark blue with red stripes and the cap was blue with a white "P". A "PBC" monogram signifying Pittsburgh Baseball Club was also added to the left sleeve later in the decade.
1910-1920: The regular collar was replaced by the short, stand-up "cadet" style with a button collar. Pinstriped material was also introduced. As the team nickname became more accepted, "Pirates" was displayed in capital letters down the button lapel (1912). The cadet-style collar soon gave way to a tapered collar extension, but the button lapel remained solid dark blue with white buttons and a "P-P" straddling the top button (1913-14). Later in this decade, the cap had piping and also included a "P" in white or red.

GReG smith Director of Scouting Greg Smith is in his fourth season as Pittsburgh’s Director of Scouting, having been named to the position on November 7, 2007. Smith’s first three drafts with the Pirates have been some of the most successful in all of baseball. In 2008, Smith spearheaded the club’s First-Year Player Draft efforts and selected Vanderbilt third baseman Pedro Alvarez - who was rated by Baseball America as the “No. 1 prospect” in the draft - with the second pick overall. The Pirates signed 32 of their 50 picks from the 2008 draft and selected 33 players from the college ranks. Smith and his scouting staff followed up with another strong draft in 2009, signing each of the first 14 selections and 23 overall. College catcher Tony Sanchez, the club’s first-round pick and fourth in the country, went on to hit .309 while playing at three different levels in his first professional season. In 2010, the Pirates strengthened their pitching depth by selecting a pitcher in 12 of the first 14 rounds. Jameson Taillon and Stetson Allie, considered by many to be the top two high school pitching prospects in the country, were selected first and second respectively by Smith and his staff in the annual draft. Among the 50 total players drafted by the Pirates n 2010, 27 were signed, including 16 pitchers. In addition to his duties as the Director of Scouting, Greg provides recommendations to General Manager Neal Huntington regarding personnel, strategic planning and decision making for the Baseball Operations department. Smith is a 19-year scouting veteran, having spent 11 seasons with the Detroit organization, working the last three years (2005-07) as the club’s special assignment scout. Prior to 2005, Greg spent eight seasons (1997-2004) as Detroit’s Director of Scouting where he oversaw the First-Year Player Draft and international scouting. He also simultaneously served as the Club’s Director of Player Development from 2000-2002. Before joining the Tigers organization, Smith spent seven years (1990-96) as an area scout with the San Diego Padres, covering areas from Florida to Maryland. Under Smith’s guidance, the Tigers selected 2006 American League Rookie of the Year Justin Verlander with the second overall pick in the 2004 draft. Smith and his staff were rated by Baseball America as having the strongest draft of all 30 major league clubs in 2002, a year in which the club selected outfielder Curtis Granderson in the third round and right-handed pitcher Joel Zumaya in the 11th round. Additionally, Greg was directly responsible for the signing of Jair Jurrjens as a non-drafted free agent out of Curacao. During Smith’s tenure as Director of Scouting, the Tigers signed and developed over 40 players who reached the Major League level. Smith spent seven years (1990-1996) as an area scout with the San Diego Padres before joining the Detroit organization. An outfielder/first baseman during his playing days, he signed with the Padres as a free agent on 6/7/88 and played three seasons in the minor leagues with Spokane (1988), Charleston, SC (1989) and Riverside (1990), a club managed by Bruce Bochy. Greg was born on 2/2/66 in Chattanooga, TN. He received his bachelor’s degree in Sociology in 1998 from Vanderbilt University, where he also played baseball and led the SEC in hitting in 1987. Smith resides in Pittsburgh with his wife Martha.

He spent five seasons in the New York minor league system before being traded to Detroit on 2/17/94. An infielder during his playing days, DelliCarri retired following the players strike in 1995. He returned to the New York organization and served the Mets as their Double-A Hitting Coach at Binghamton during the ‘95 campaign before joining the scouting staff in 1996.

The Venezuelan Summer League Pirates won the league championship for the second time in three years while also making a fifth straight appearance in the postseason. The VSL Pirates not only posted the best record (48-20) during the regular season, but also defeated the VSL Mariners, two games to one, in the best-of-three finals, including a 212 drubbing in the third and deciding game. The pitching staff recorded a 3.53 ERA for the season, which ranked second among the seven teams in the league. Four members of the pitching staff (Orlando Castro, Luis Ortiz, Remberto Romo and Francisco Vilchez) finished tied for third in the league with six wins apiece. Castro boasted a perfect 6-0 record and a 1.17 ERA in his 13 appearances (11 starts). Vilchez ended the year with the second-best ERA and the third-best batting average against (.224) in the circuit. Raul Ruiz’ 15 saves paced the league (the next closest pitcher was Roberto Moreno of the VSL Reds with six saves) while teammate Luis Figuera tied for third in the save department. Offensively Francisco Aponte had a league-leading 28 stolen bases, ranked eighth in batting average, third in runs scored and first in walks. Jose Ozuna went deep a league-high 10 times, finished second with 26 extra base hits, third in RBI and fifth in slugging percentage.

PNC Park Statue Information HONUS WAGNER The Honus Wagner statue has had three different “homes” since being dedicated on April 30, 1955. Originally, the Wagner statue was located in Schenley Park, close to the Pirates early home, Forbes Field. It was then moved to Three Rivers Stadium and erected outside Gate C on July 21, 1972. The statue is now located at the home plate entrance to PNC Park. Honus Wagner’s statue was sponsored by the Pittsburgh Professional Baseball Association as a lasting tribute to his character and abilities. Contributions to the statue fund were in amounts ranging from $1,000 to $1.00 and were received from thousands of individuals, organizations and foundations. Names of all contributors were then inscribed on one continuous roll and put in a stainless steel, hermetically-sealed tube before being placed inside the statue. “No one player has ever brought more honor to the game of baseball than has Honus Wagner,” said former Pirates President Bill Benswanger, who served as master of ceremonies at the original statue dedication in 1955. Roberto Clemente The Roberto Clemente statue was dedicated on July 8, 1994, to kick off All-Star Week in Pittsburgh. It was originally erected outside Gate A at Three Rivers Stadium and is now located outside the Center Field Gate to PNC Park, a few steps away from the Roberto Clemente Bridge. The base of the statue is black granite and stainless steel with a diamond set in the center. Glass blocks represent first, second and third base. Beneath the glass is soil from Puerto Rico -- where Roberto first played the game -- Forbes Field and Three Rivers Stadium. The soil is marked as “hallowed ground,” a place of transcendence where the past, present and future of baseball meet and to which each individual can bring his or her own memories. Encircling the diamond and set in the stainless steel is a timeline of Clemente’s life. Fifteen inscriptions run counter-clockwise around the diamond, beginning at homeplate and ending somewhere between third base and home. There is space for a 16th inscription, but it remains empty, a reflection of the incomplete circle of Roberto Clemente’s life. Susan Wagner sculpted the 12-foot bronze statue of Clemente and L.D. Astorino & Associates, Ltd., served as the architect of the project. Willie Stargell On September 29, 2000, the Pirates announced that a statue of Willie Stargell would be unveiled at the club’s new home, PNC Park. The announcement was made during the last weekend of Pittsburgh’s final games at Three Rivers Stadium. Stargell, however, did not live to see the day he would be forever immortalized at the statue unveiling on April 7, 2001. After not being able to attend the unveiling ceremony because of an illness, the Hall-of-Famer passed away in the early morning hours of April 9, the same day PNC Park officially opened its doors to begin a new era of Pirates baseball. The 12-foot bronze statue stands along Federal Street at the entrance to left field at PNC Park. At the base of the statue is a quote from Stargell: “Last night, coming in from the airport, we came through the tunnel and the city opened up its arms and I felt at home.” Also throughout the base of the statue are “Stargell stars,” which the Pirates all-time home run leader handed out to his teammates towards the conclusion of his 21-year playing career with Pittsburgh. Ralph Kiner The Pirates unveiled a sculpture of Hall-of-Fame outfielder Ralph Kiner at PNC Park on April 7, 2003, as part of the club’s opening day festivities. It is located behind the bleacher seats in left field, along the main level of the ballpark. Kiner played for the Pirates for just seven seasons (1946-1952), but still ranks second on the club’s all-time home run list behind Willie Stargell. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1975 and had his No. 4 jersey retired by the Pirates in 1987. Kiner holds many club records and is still one of only three National League players to ever hit eight home runs in one week. The club announced it would immortalize the former slugger in March of 2003. Kiner won or shared the National League home run title in each of his seven seasons with Pittsburgh, a streak still unmatched in either league. The hands and bat were sculpted by Susan Wagner, the lady who also designed the Roberto Clemente and Willie Stargell statues. 2011 PITTSBURGH PIRATES MEDIA GUIDE

Highmark Legacy Square
2011 PIRATES
Highmark Legacy Square is a one-of-a-kind permanent interactive exhibit built to honor and preserve the history of the Negro Leagues (1920-1958) and the great players from the Homestead Grays and Pittsburgh Crawfords. The exhibit is located inside the Left Field Gate Entrance at PNC Park, and is unlike anything else found in Major League Baseball. The multiple elements of the interactive experience share the inspiring story of the remarkable people who helped revolutionize the sports and business world in their own way. The exhibit features life-size bronze statues of former Negro Leagues greats Cool Papa Bell, Oscar Charleston, Josh Gibson, Judy Johnson, Buck Leonard, Satchel Paige and Smokey Joe Williams. Each statue is accompanied by an interactive kiosk allowing fans to view a personal video and learn about the player's background, Hall of Fame honors and playing statistics. The highlight of the exhibit is the Highmark Legacy Square Theatre, an indoor 25 seat movie theatre that presents the legacy of the Negro Leagues on many interactive levels. The film, which is narrated by Major League Baseball Hall of Famer and current ESPN personality Joe Morgan, is a blend of historical narrative, rare movie footage and first person interviews with journalist Mal Goode, local baseball legend Harold Tinker, Negro Leagues and Major League player Monte Irwin, Pittsburgh Crawfords player Clarence Bruce and Cumberland Posey's daughter, Oldie Posey Striblin.
2010 REVIEW HISTORY
Bill Mazeroski Statue
POST-SEASON
As part of the 50th anniversary season of the 1960 World Series Championship, the Pirates announced plans on January 29, 2010, to erect a statue of Hall-of-Fame second baseman Bill Mazeroski. The 12-foot bronze statue was officially unveiled on September 5, 2010, and stands at the end of Mazeroski Way, which is located at the right field entrance to PNC Park. Susan Wagner, who sculpted the Roberto Clemente, Willie Stargell and Ralph Kiner statues located around the ballpark, also produced this likeness of Maz.
DEVELOPMENT
Mazeroski remains the only player in Major League Baseball history to hit a game-winning home run in Game 7 of a World Series. His blast off New York’s Ralph Terry on October 13, 1960, gave the Bucs a 10-9 victory in the deciding game played at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh.
AFFILIATES
Elected into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2001, the Pirates retired Mazeroski’s uniform #9 in 1987. He was a seven-time All-Star and holds numerous Major League record for second basemen, including most seasons leading the league in assists (nine), most double plays in a single season (161 in 1966) and most career double plays (1,707).

Greg Brown is in his 18th season as a radio and television play-by-play announcer with the Pirates, one of only six in the history of the club with at least 15 years of service behind the mic for the Bucs on radio. Greg's association with the Pirates actually began in 1979, when he interned in the Promotions department while attending Point Park College. Following the World Series that year, Brown worked as the clubhouse manager during the Instructional League program in Bradenton, Florida. His 10-year stint in the Bucs front office included work in the Sales, Public Relations and Broadcasting departments. Greg also served as the team's public address announcer during the 1987 campaign. In 1988, he was a sports anchor on WFMJ-TV in Youngstown, OH. Prior to joining Pittsburgh's broadcast team in 1994, Brown spent five seasons (1989-1993) doing play-by-play and color commentary for the Buffalo Bisons of the American Association (now International League) as well as hosting a sportstalk show on WGR Radio. He also worked as a color analyst and a pre- and post-game show host for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League for five seasons (198993). Also during his time in Buffalo, Greg served as a play-by-play announcer for University of Buffalo basketball on WGR Radio and as a broadcaster for the Empire TV Sports Network. Brown’s dedication and passion for the Pirates extends to his efforts away from the broadcast booth as well. In addition to various offseason appearances in the community and his work on the annual Pirates caravan during the month of January, Greg spearheaded the “Gloves for Kids” program, which raised money for much-needed equipment and gloves for youth baseball and softball organizations in underserved areas around the Pittsburgh area. During the course of the season, Brown teams up with broadcast partner Steve Blass and hosts several pre-game receptions for members of the 65 Roses Club, which is part of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Brown is a native of Washington, D.C. He currently resides in Leet Township with his wife Kim and son Ryan (12).

STEVE BLASS Color Analyst The 2011 season marks Steve Blass' 52nd year of involvement with the Pirates and his 26th behind the microphone as a color commentator. He has been associated with the club since signing his first professional contract on June 27, 1960. A right-handed pitcher, Blass made his professional debut with Kingport in 1960 and his Major league debut with the Bucs on May 10, 1964. He joined the big league team permanently in 1966 and went on to pitch a total of 10 seasons in the Majors, compiling a 103-76 record, 57 complete games and 16 shutouts in 282 games (231 starts). Steve ranks seventh on the club’s all-time list in strikeouts (896). In his third full season in the Majors in 1968, Steve went 18-6, leading the league with a .750 winning percentage while positing a 2.12 ERA, 12 complete games and a career-high seven shutouts. His 2.12 ERA ranked fifth in the N.L. as St. Louis’ Bob Gibson led the circuit with a 1.12 ERA. During a five-year span from 1968 thru 1972, Blass was one of the best pitchers in the National League as he compiled a 78-44 record, 50 complete games and a 3.05 ERA. He won a career-high 19 games in 1972 and was named to the National League All-Star team that season. In the 1971 World Series against the Baltimore Orioles, Blass recorded two complete game victories, allowing only seven hits and two runs in 18 innings of work. He finished second in the voting for World Series MVP behind teammate Roberto Clemente and remains the last National League pitcher to throw a complete game in Game Seven of a World Series. After retiring following the 1974 season, Blass remained in the Pittsburgh area and worked in private business, while continuing to do community service for the ballclub. In 1983, he worked with the legendary and Hall of Fame broadcaster Bob Prince on Pirate cable telecasts and was also retained the following year when the cable rights were secured by Home Sports Entertainment. Blass officially joined the Pittsburgh Pirates radio broadcast crew in 1986. For the seventh straight season, Steve will work only those games played at PNC Park. He will continue in his role as an analyst on both radio and TV. Only Lanny Frattare (33 years) and Bob Prince (28) have spent more years behind the microphone than Steve (25). A native of Canaan, CT, Steve and his wife Karen live in Upper St. Clair. They have two sons, David and Christopher, and five grandchildren. In 2002, Steve became the 13th recipient of the "Pride of the Pirates" award, a yearly honor (since 1990) which recognizes a member of the Pirates family who has demonstrated the qualities of sportsmanship, dedication and outstanding character during a lifetime of service. On September 10, 2009, Steve defied the astronomical odds and recorded a pair of holes-in-one in the same round of golf. According to Golf Digest, the odds of a golfer making two aces in the same round are one in 67 million.

BOB WALK Color Analyst After spending 14 seasons in a Major League uniform, Bob Walk is in his 18th season as a member of the Pirates broadcast crew. He joins Greg Brown as being one of only six men with at least 15 years of service behind the microphone for the Bucs on radio. The former right-handed pitcher spent 10 of his 14 years pitching in the Major Leagues with Pittsburgh (1984-1993). He compiled a 105-81 lifetime record, which included an 82-61 mark with the Pirates. Walk's professional career began with Spartanburg in 1977 after he was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in the 3rd round of the 1976 June draft. He made his big league debut with the Phillies in 1980 and was the starting pitcher in Game One of the World Series that October against Kansas City, a team that featured current Pittsburgh skipper Clint Hurdle. In the spring of 1981, Walk was dealt to the Atlanta Braves for outfielder Gary Matthews. He spent three seasons in the Atlanta organization before being acquired by Pittsburgh in 1984. Bob was a 1988 National League All-Star and he posted six straight winning seasons from 1987 to 1992. One of his finest moments in a Pirates uniform came in 1992 when he pitched a 7-1, complete-game victory over the Atlanta Braves in Game Five of the National League Championship Series. Walk, a native of Newhall, CA, resides in Wexford with his wife Lorrie. They have three sons; Tommy (31), Johnny (28) and Ronny (21). Tommy and his wife, Dominique, are the proud parents of daughters Makayla (8) and Kylie (5).
